President Trump warns that the US will “finish the job” if talks with Iran fail, prompting Iranian officials to threaten retaliation in “another language.”
Iran is imploding, the regime is broke, and their war machine is running on empty.
Workers aren’t getting paid, soldiers are deserting, and military camps are literally facing food shortages. Their entire proxy network is crumbling.
All it takes is one more month of President Trump’s relentless strikes and crushing blockade to finish this. Our region has earned the right to peace and stability after decades of being terrorized by this corrupt, fascist regime.
UAE strikes on Bandar Abbas port
UAE-made kamikaze drones struck Iran’s Bandar Abbas port, marking a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict between the UAE and Iran. This attack is part of a series of covert operations by the UAE against Iranian targets.
Reports in the 15:00–15:05 UTC window indicate that Iran’s port of Bandar Abbas was struck by UAE‑made Yabhon loitering munitions, with several sources stating the United Arab Emirates is behind a series of covert attacks on Iranian territory. One feed specifies that the strikes occurred “yesterday,” suggesting an attack within the last 24 hours that is only now being surfaced in open sources. Earlier alerts have already flagged Bandar Abbas as a target of US‑made LUCAS drones; today’s reporting adds an explicit Emirati origin for part of the strike package.
Bandar Abbas is Iran’s primary naval and commercial port on the Strait of Hormuz, a choke point for roughly a fifth of globally traded crude and significant LNG volumes. The reports describe “Yabhon kamikaze drones” hitting port facilities. There is no immediate visual confirmation of damage or disruption to berths, cranes, or fuel handling infrastructure, and Tehran and Abu Dhabi have not issued formal statements. However, the repeated mention of UAE‑origin munitions and prior covert strikes, combined with concurrent Iranian claims of US projectiles near Qeshm Island, point to a widening, multi-actor campaign inside Iran’s Gulf littoral.
U.S. conduct massive strikes on communication networks
US President Donald Trump said on Monday the United States would either reach a deal with Iran or “finish the job,” eliciting threats from officials in the Islamic Republic.
“We’re either going to make a deal or we’re going to finish the job. OK. And it won’t be tough to finish the job. I’d rather make a deal, because I don’t want to affect 91 million people,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.
“We can knock down their bridges in one hour, we can knock out their energy supply…they don’t have any money now. We haven’t given them any money,” he added.
Responding to Trump’s comments, Iran’s Supreme National Security Council secretary, Mohammad Bagher Zolghadr, warned that Tehran would respond “in another language” unless Trump speaks to the Iranian people “with respect”.
“I say to the delusional president of the United States, who today threatened 91 million Iranians: Speak to the Iranian people with respect, or we will respond to you in another language,” Zolghadr said.
He claimed that Trump had previously used similar language to threaten Iran’s “several-thousand-year-old civilization,” adding that the result for Washington had been “defeat, desperation and requests for negotiations and a ceasefire.”
The back-and-forth comes as the US and Iran continue their engagement in an attempt to reach a permanent deal after signing a Memorandum of Understanding.
Despite the talks, military tensions recently escalated as the US twice struck Iranian targets in the Strait of Hormuz in response to Iranian violations of the ceasefire.
Trump subsequently warned that the US may be forced to “militarily complete the job” if Iran continued to violate the ceasefire.
